Instructor

Julia Zaytseva

Senior Product Designer

I’m a Senior Product designer with 13 years of experience, I specialize in UI and Design Systems. My superpower is creating structure and order, and close collaboration with my team to create the best product. As a design mentor, I have a mission to help other designers grow and bring the best out in them. I have been teaching online since 2019 and did courses, workshops and 1-1 mentorship sessions. My course on Visual Design on Skillshare had over 2000 students. Off-work I learn languages, cuddle my fluffy cat and do tricks on a pole.

What others say

“I have always maintained a portfolio and sought guidance on crafting a compelling story. What is the difference between simply describing what I did and telling a conversational story? This course has helped me develop a better design narrative for my project.”

“Julia took a detailed check on my current portfolio and pointed out many aspects that I can work on to improve the storytelling and general structure. I really appreciate the useful suggestions she shared with me!”

Taohui Cheng

“I got some great feedback to prep my portfolio for an upcoming interview. Julia showed me some things that were still not clear and that were crucial to add. I would certainly recommend her for your gnarly portfolio questions.”

Simon Vanleeuw

“I used to watch YT videos and attend ADP group sessions related to portfolio building, which would often share similar knowledge. But a structured, month-long program, made it feel more personal and particularly helped with accountability. ”

FAQ

  • Who is this for?

    This program is perfect for UX designers with 0-3 years of experience, especially if you're job-seeking and ready to refine your portfolio.

  • What if I don’t have a case study yet?

    You’ll get the most out of the program if you have at least one case study to refine. If you’re starting from scratch, it may take more effort to keep up.

  • Will this guarantee me a job?

    No guarantees, but a strong portfolio dramatically increases your chances of landing interviews and standing out in the hiring process.

  • Do you offer pricing adjustments based on location?

    I understand that UX designers come from all over the world, and pricing can feel different depending on where you live. If the cost is a barrier, send me an email to [email protected], and we can discuss possible options!

  • How much time will this take?

    Plan for 6-8 hours per week to complete assignments and attend Q&A sessions.

  • What if I don’t have time to complete everything?

    The program is designed to be flexible, so you can work at your own pace. Even if you can’t finish everything within the 4 weeks, you’ll still have the materials and frameworks to continue refining your portfolio afterward.

  • Is this program useful for senior designers?

    This program is primarily designed for early-career UX designers (0-3 years of experience). However, if you're a senior designer, you might still find value in refining your storytelling and case study structure, especially if you're looking for a job and haven't touched your portfolio in a while.
